A mesmerising pop song, with added howling.

"Porcelain," the debut single from Skott, was a soft-yet-strong pop song that used delicate vocals to mask a lethal threat — and it won a famous fan in the form of Lorde. Today, the Scandinavian singer-songwriter shares "Wolf," the second song from her upcoming double single release, exclusively with The FADER. "Wolf" is a richly textured ballad that draws a yearning, evocative portrait of a lover fighting to hold onto a fading relationship.

Skott explained her creative process over email to The FADER: "Sometimes you can't control what you feel — no matter how we change ourselves on the surface, there's an instinct inside of us we can't ignore. ‘Wolf’ is about not giving up on what your heart truly desires.
